Фильмы

69
Director
"69" is an experimental film made from an extensive Super 8 archive filmed by Edmond Conilh de Beyssac, a French aviator. In context, everything was filmed in March of 1969, on a trip to Brazil. The film was transmuted into the idea of Anarchive, a concept created by the philosopher Erin Manning, activated in a process of audiovisual experimentation.
Kopacabana
Director
Film set in the neighborhood of Copacabana, elaborated through a collage of current and archive images (Super 8 and digital). An experimental work narrated by the significant speech of the poet Fausto Fawcett, and sonorized by the musician Arnaldo Brandão.
Tupianas
Director
Super 8 filmed in Brazil during the 70's. It's a reflection about the idea of Tupi, by elaborating a non-linear narrative with a collage of "antropofagic images", presenting the body and space as topology of desires, experimenting the choice in life, and language of the essential, instead of the accessory.
O Signo do Caos
Director of Photography
A customs agent, Dr. Amnésio, examines some reels of film, a documentary Orson Welles made about Brazil, and tries to confiscate the material. Then, a party in which repression agents celebrate their victory against freedom and creativity.
Reinvenção da Rua
Director of Photography
Helena Ignez's first film as a director is a homage to American architect and contemporary artist Vito Acconti, who made an urban intervention over a bridge in São Paulo, transforming that space for it to be used as shelter by nearby homeless people.
Razor in the Flesh
Still Photographer
Neusa Suely, a prostitute, is accused by her pimp Vado of stealing his money. To get rid of the accusations, she blames her neighbour, Veludo. The three characters then start to live a small tragedy set in the underground Rio de Janeiro scene.
